Is it safe to get a BBL 5 months into your Accutane journey?

Question

I am supposed to begin my five month accutane journey on 11/26/18. However, I also plan on having my BBL done the second week of April 2019. Is this safe to do? If not, how long do I have to wait between getting the BBL and starting the Accutane? Which one is best to do first?

Daniel Del Vecchio, MD · Answer

in general it is advised to stop Accutane one year prior  to any elective surgical procedure. On the opposite end, waiting at least six months after your procedure before starting Accutane seems reasonable. Hope this helps.

Lena,Just wait 6 months after your procedure to start Accutane.  You should be almost fully healed before starting this medication.Dr T

Not aware of study demonstrating contraindication of accutane and BBL. I would highly recommend you chose a VASER specialist for your needs.
